Answer 1

Answer:

The most important crop is cotton, which is obtained from the seed hairs of 4 species of Gossypium, the Old World diploids Gossypium arboreum and Gossypium herbaceum, and the New World tetraploids Gossypium hirsutum and Gossypium barbadense.

Two major fibre crops are jute and cotton. Jute grows well on alluvial soil and requires high temperature, heavy rainfall and humid climate. Cotton requires high temperature, light rainfall, two hundred and ten frost-free days and bright sunshine for its growth.
